The long-standing problem of money and food is finally expected to be solved, and Zhu Chengjun set his sights on the present.

A large number of victims are pouring in, and how to ensure that the victims do not cause chaos and do not make trouble is the top priority at the moment.

To let all the victims of the disaster keep to themselves, Zhu Chengjun is really not very sure.

Under the guidance of Xu Xiao, the refugees moved to the open space of Xishan in an orderly manner, and the trend of mass chaos was temporarily alleviated.

"Is the owner worried about the refugees?" Shen Ze asked cautiously.

Zhu Chengjun did not reply, looking ahead, frowning, although he was optimistic about the market prospects of bearings, he also believed that Shen Ze's ability to do things would definitely not disappoint him. After all, it's just a beautiful vision, and it is always difficult to see tangible results in front of you for a while.

"The owner can use the grain in stock to stabilize the current situation." Shen Ze proposed.

Zhu Chengjun shook his head and said: "Taking out a part of the few grains in the treasury to help the victims will inevitably cause panic among the people in the county. ”

Shen Ze knew that Zhu Chengjun's worries were not unreasonable, and with the existing conditions now, he could only protect one side.

"With absolute confidence, bearings will be welcomed by the market." Master Jia's tone was unusually determined.

At present, the situation is grim, and we must not be blindly optimistic, but can only choose the most conservative and prudent way to deal with it. Zhu Chengjun instructed Master Jia: "In the short term, no matter whether the market is optimistic about our products or not, you have to process and produce bearings of various specifications, and I have a place to use them." ”

Since the manufacture of bearings, Master Jia has been thinking about how to increase the practical application of bearings. In the process of thinking, Master Jia found that all the objects that rotate need to be used, and the future of bearings is absolutely bright. Therefore, Master Jia highly agreed with Zhu Chengjun's decision to mass-produce bearings.

"If you rush to make a large number of bearings, you will definitely need a lot of manpower." Master Jia glanced up at the refugees who had moved to Xishan one after another, and asked Zhu Chengjun for instructions: "There are not many blacksmiths in Zhongli County, and I propose that Zhu Gongzi can recruit some people from this large number of refugees, and it would be better if there were those who could strike iron." ”

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and if you want to get a sharp weapon, you must first get your people.

Talent is the foundation of invention and creation of all tools to improve productivity.

"When the refugees are settled, I'll send someone over to look for them."

For talents with a skill, Zhu Chengjun has plans to recruit them.

Looking up, the clouds floating in the sky obscured the scorching sun.

The sky is getting more and more gloomy, and if there is a sudden rain at this time, it will definitely be a disaster for the victims who have no roof on their heads, and the already dire situation will definitely be worse. Zhu Chengjun can only pray, I hope that God can respond to his requests.

Seeing that the refugees were almost arranged, Zhu Chengjun was about to turn around and leave, and saw that there were still a large number of refugees coming here not far away, as if there was an endless stream. Seeing this scene, Zhu Chengjun's worry deepened more and more.

Shen Ze hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak: "Actually, we still have an emergency method. With Zhu Chengjun's approval, Shen Ze avoided Zhu Chengjun's staring eyes and said in a low voice: "The grain processing factory has accumulated a large number of ...... Bran. ”

Hearing that he was going to use bran to help the victims, Zhu Chengjun wondered what it was like to be in his heart.

"Bran, that's for animals......" Master Jia noticed that he was speechless, and hurriedly held back his words.

In the year of famine, in order to survive, there are not a few people who eat chaff and drink thin.

Shen Ze saw that Zhu Chengjun was not really angry, and said patiently: "The bran produced by our grain processing factory...... It shouldn't be hard to swallow, and besides, bran is also a good thing for the hungry victims. ”

Master Jia could see that it was difficult for Zhu Chengjun to make this determination, and said: "Bran is better than grass roots, tree bark, and Guanyin soil...... Much better...... If these refugees are in a hurry, they may do something to ......"

Chen Xuan came to Zhu Chengjun's eyes and persuaded: "Make up your mind as soon as possible, once people are hungry and crazy...... Chen Xuan felt that the latter words were really difficult to speak, but he had to say: "I don't think you want to hear or see the tragedy of cannibalism." ”

Zhu Chengjun closed his eyes with difficulty, and suddenly a picture of a thousand miles of starvation appeared in his mind, seeing the scene in the scroll, Zhu Chengjun shook his head violently, wanting to wave away the pictures, but it became clearer and clearer.

"Do as you say." Zhu Chengjun raised his hand weakly.

"Yes." Shen Ze replied.

At some point, the refugees were approaching the checkpoint.

They had been on the road for a long time, hungry and tired, and they didn't even have the strength to talk to the guards.

Everyone sat scattered on the ground, struggling to breathe.

Zhu Chengjun noticed that two thin figures in the crowd, one large and one small, were quietly avoiding the crowd and moving to an inconspicuous corner, and Zhu Chengjun could only see the silhouette of the two when they sat down, and there was no doubt that these two should be sisters and brothers.

The boy's sister was wary of her surroundings, and then turned her back, as if she was reaching for something in her arms.

The two men sitting not far from the sister and brother seemed to keep an eye on the two siblings, and the two men suddenly stood up, rushed straight to the siblings, and snatched the food from the hands of the siblings, lest they cause a robbery, so they broke it open and sent it to their mouths.

"That's mine, give it back to me!"

The little boy didn't know where he got the strength and courage to grab the man's hand.

"Brother!" The woman was afraid that the two men would hurt her brother and tear themselves together with the two men.

The little boy was thin and weak, and he knew that he could not snatch the man who was tall and strong, but he could not care much more, and opened his mouth to bite the man's hand.

"Ouch...... Bastard! ”

In pain, the man kicked away the little boy who was grabbing food from him.

Another man saw the woman tearing endlessly, and in anger, he pulled out his hand and slapped the woman with a backhand.

"Smack!" The woman was slapped by the man, and one fell to the ground.

"Brother......

When the woman saw her younger brother lying unconscious on the ground, she didn't have time to get up, so she crawled and rolled over.

"Brother......" The woman's cry was like a cuckoo crying blood.

"Damn it!"

Bullying the weak like this, Chen Xuan on the hillside really couldn't see it, jumped down the hillside, and came to the crowd with a few ups and downs with his light body. Before Chen Xuan could stand firmly, he raised his foot and kicked the two men three feet away.

"Xiao Qi...... Wake up...... Don't scare my sister, okay......"

The woman called out to her fainting brother with a trembling cry.

"You...... You...... Get out of here! Chen Xuan scolded angrily.

"The Heroine Spends Her Life ......"

The two men crawled to Chen Xuan, kowtowing like pounding garlic, and begging for mercy again and again.

When Chen Xuan flew down the mountain, Zhu Chengjun also rushed down the mountain after him, and crossed the rejection horse with the help of his running power.

"My lord......" Several officials in charge of guarding couldn't take care of it, and they also followed over the rejection of the horse.

Sun Qi, who arrived a few steps ahead of Zhu Chengjun, bent down to check the little boy's injuries.

"How's the man?" Zhu Chengjun squatted down and asked.

"Childe, Miss, please save my brother......" The teary-eyed woman knelt and kowtowed.

Zhu Chengjun didn't care about the woman who kowtowed for help, and his mind was on the fainting little boy.

Sun Qi checked it again and sighed lightly: "The injury is not serious, it's just ......"

"It's hot!" Zhu Chengjun stroked the boy's forehead, feeling unusually hot.

"He needs to seek medical attention immediately, or he will be in danger of his life." Sun Qi said.

Zhu Chengjun knows that in the era of low medical conditions, a cold and fever can kill people even if they are serious.

"Childe, please......" The woman's forehead was broken.

"Your Excellency!" The staffs of the officials separated the people who came up around them.

"The owner." Shen Ze then arrived.

Seeing the pair of siblings, Zhu Chengjun was also moved by compassion.

"Send people back to the county government for treatment as quickly as possible." Zhu Chengjun commanded.

"My subordinates understand." Shen Ze picked up the fainting little boy and left.

"Little girl, thank you for your ......"

"Please get up, come along, your brother needs your care."

"Thank you, my lord......" The woman wiped her tears and followed Shen Ze away.

When everyone learned of Zhu Chengjun's identity, they fell to their knees.

"Your Excellency...... Please...... Help us all......"

"Your Excellency......" everyone kowtowed and begged.

Zhu Chengjun ignored it and stared closely at the two men who were kneeling on the ground trembling.

"These two, what to do." Chen Xuan asked.

Zhu Chengjun turned around and instructed the officials: "Tie up these two people, and tie them outside the checkpoint to set an example." ”

"Adult ......"

Zhu Chengjun withdrew from the crowd and saw Xu Xiao just returning.

"Big brother, everyone has been settled." Xu Xiao saw that there were still so many people waiting to be placed, and his brows immediately furrowed.

Zhu Chengjun saw that Xu Xiao seemed to be in trouble, and asked, "Is there no room for it over there?" ”

"Yes." Xu Xiao said.

"Lead people through right away." Zhu Chengjun saw that the refugees who knelt on the ground had no intention of getting up, and shouted: "Everyone, please follow the arrangement and settle down on the side of Xishan." ”

"My lord, we are going into the city......"

Hearing discordant shouts in the crowd, Zhu Chengjun lowered his face and ordered the officials around him: "Who is talking!" Pull people out of me and tie them up with those two. ”

After receiving the order, the officials quickly and accurately pulled the shouter out of the crowd.

Zhu Chengjun knew that he had to come up with iron-fisted means at the moment, and he must not let people make any demands, so he coldly glanced at everyone and said sternly: "Please move to Xishan immediately, if anyone dares to say more, those few people will be your fate!" If anyone dares to make trouble in Xishan, they will be killed! Please do it yourself! ”

Under the iron-fisted deterrence, everyone was suppressed by Zhu Chengjun and obediently obeyed the arrangement.

Zhu Chengjun turned around and walked through the checkpoint, and instructed the guards and officials: "Everyone work hard, build the checkpoint well, guard it tightly, and never let anyone cross the line!" ”

"Obey your lordship!"

Zhu Chengjun indifferently swept the three people who were tied up and knelt outside the checkpoint, and explained to the officials: "These three people have been tied, but they can't be let die." Zhu Chengjun deliberately punished these three people, in order to deter those who broke through. Zhu Chengjun thought that this would not have enough deterrent effect, and explained to Xu Xiao: "I will give you full responsibility over there, if someone makes trouble, these three people will be their fate." ”

"Obey the orders of the eldest brother." Hearing that he had to guard thousands of refugees in Xishan, Xu Xiao asked for instructions: "Big brother, if you want to guard the checkpoint, it is far from enough for the younger brother to be alone. ”

Zhu Chengjun nodded and said, "You select a hundred people from the road construction workers, form a control brigade, guard the checkpoint in shifts, and never let anyone break through." Explain to them that these people are here to compete with them for jobs. ”

"Understood." Xu Xiao knew that only in this way could the people of the temporarily formed control brigade be more dedicated.

Glancing at the refugees who were slowly walking towards Xishan under the guidance of the officials, and then thinking back to what happened to the pair of sisters and brothers a moment ago, Zhu Chengjun knew that he couldn't have the slightest kindness as a woman. Grab a bite to eat, and what else is there that these hungry people can't do. In order to eat a bite to eat, what will they become when they really can't live?

Zhu Chengjun suddenly remembered a sentence of soul torture: Are refugees still human.
